The Faraway Jumper is inspired by Fair Isle knitting and festive holiday jumpers, and features a striking circular yoke, which is worked in the round.

Suitable for Intermediate crocheters, it uses 4 colours, a 4mm (G/6) hook, DK (light/3) yarn, and a simple combination of Granny and spike stitch. It is available in UK and US crochet terminology and comes in 8 sizes, from XS to 4XL.

Worked from the top down, there are charts, diagrams and photo tutorials to help you along the way. You will need to know how to do a UK Double crochet (US single crochet) chainless foundation for the start.

There are many video tutorials for this pattern on my YouTube channel at youtube.com/@Iron_lamb

This jumper is fairly cropped, so remember to add a bit more yarn if you wish to extend the length.

If you love this stitch combo, but want to try a simpler project first, there is also a Faraway cowl and Faraway hat pattern available.
